What "misinformation" would that be ?
That nuclear power plant is now under control of troops commanded by ... (wait for it) ... a literal frickin' madman ...
You at all familiar with the paradigm of "If I can't have it, then you can't have it ..." ?
But hey - keep right on fiddling ... while it all burns down ...

This might give an indication of how it's going for RU in Ukraine though:
That gear is rolling out of Khabarovsk around 27 (?) hours ago.
Where is Khabarovsk you ask ?
It's in far eastern Russia ... located 30 kilometers from the China-Russia Border, at the confluence of the Amur and Ussuri Rivers.
It will take about a week to reach Ukraine.
But it's pretty old equipment apparently ... given the jokes about UA not bothering to waste advanced weaponry on it ("use gun instead")
That they are moving it out there does raise some interesting questions though.

Anybody think the former guy - The Orange Dud - wouldn't want to get some of this action if he could ?
Don't be too certain that he couldn't pull it off ... with a compliant Republican Congress.
(And yeah - the missing "e" above is entirely intentional)

Maybe this "Ghost of Kyiv" fighter pilot dude is a real guy after all:
(Guy that posted that is UA ... but up in Michigan)

Looks like some may have seen just about enough:
About .... time ...
About .... time ...
Wow, what were they thinking when they decided to shell a nuclear power plant. There are 6 reactors at that station, that would be bad on a whole new level.
It's Fake News. They didn't shell the nuclear power plant. The fire was at training facility outside the main complex.
Still too close to the reactors. not like the Russians have perfect aim or anything....
There are reports the Russians were fired upon with RPG’s as they approached near the facility.
Not surprising, if I were in charge of the Ukraine army I would be protecting would be protecting high value targets and nuclear power plants are pretty high on that list.
I think if the plant was operating at capacity that would be true, but I have read several places that said only one of the 6 reactors are in use and it is only at 60%.
But even if none of the reactors are operating, there is enough spent fuel that if it were bombed would be a disaster.
They’re not interested in bombing a nuclear site. They are only interested in fighting the military to make them surrender.

No ... it's a called "the fog of war" ...
That's a very specific phenomena in wars, where there are conflicting reports of what happened.
Right ... just like RU is not conducting a war of aggression in Ukraine.
Because Daddy Vladdy said so.
Distance from the reactors ?
